Two leaked images have revealed the upcoming DLC heroes "For Honor" ahead of Ubisoft's official release.
The two new heroes are expected to arrive on the tactical medieval brawler video game. Ubisoft has promised that it will introduce two new playable heroes for the new Faction War season and images of these heroes have been leaked before their release.
It appears that a Japanese unit and Roman Centurions may be the new classes that will be added to the roster. A Redditor called Bones404 posted two images showing the new heroes - Ninja and Centurion.
The ninja looks like a typical shinobi, wearing leather armor and brandishing a chain sickle or kusarigama. The new character also wears a ninja mask, and it appears that it will fight at the mid-range combat.
One can picture the ninja with the chain whirling over his head and then cutting the enemy with his sickle. Players should expect him to be fast, sneaky, and deadly, but with a weakness. The Ninja is expected to be allied with the Samurai.
The Centurion looks like he is wearing heavy-duty armor and likely brandishes a spear or javelin. It is still early to say where the character will fit in the "Viking/Knights/Samurai dichotomy," but he could be a knight.
The source of the images is still unclear, but it is possibly "internal Ubisoft screenshots." The characters in the leaked images apparently match the silhouettes in official "For Honor" Season Pass artwork, so they appear to be legitimate.
The next season of the game's Faction War is expected to happen in mid-April and in addition to two new characters, there are also two maps, additional rewards, and more equipment are coming.
"For Honor" is now available for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. The Season Pass gives players access to all of the upcoming expansions, exclusive content, and customization options. It also includes six new heroes, exclusive Sunbeam Moon Effect, three exclusive emblem outlines, six elite outfits, and more.
